Mark Jackson Epoch Times May 5
2.5/5
'Sicario' demonstrated US military versus drug cartels is exciting, but by the time 'Brothers Under Fire' revs up, one’s mind has already left the building. Go to Full Review
Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue Apr 17
Despite some intermittent thrills, the film struggles to generate any meaningful suspense with its thinly sketched characters and narrative predictability. Go to Full Review

At times competent in its action sequences, Brothers Under Fire is otherwise unnoteworthy. Go to Full Review

Horror fan 4 @Horrorfan4life 4d What a terrible movie. The over the top action sequences and gun fights were laugh out loud bad. Kiefer Sutherland was wasted in this movie. I actually paid 5.99 to rent this. I should've waited till it went to streaming. There's nothing good about this movie and the best part of it is when the credits rolled. Tim Treakle See more ARNEZ C. @Arny6tearz 6d I really only watched it because of Kiefer it was super predictable guy gets citizenship then married and killed on his wedding night then they got defend the time from bad guys See more Pat D @Patrick930 Jun 5 If Kiefer wasn’t starring this would be zero stars. Disappointing and misleading. It’s not a military action flick, it’s a confusing drug cartel mishmash. Plodding and predictable. See more Jerod S @jeroduptown May 22 Kiefer's off base for a soldier's wedding when things go wrong and people start getting killed. Him and his boys gotta keep the bad banditos away. Predictable. See more Michael G @Mich3417 May 20 Love Kiefer Sutherland, but not this movie or his character. Very disappointed with the story, character development and the whole picture. Definitely was a waste of time watching this simple movie. No surprises, anybody could see where this picture was going in the first five minutes. Never left a review before on any movie…that is how bad I thought this movie was. Would not watch it again or the sequel. See more Riley V @RT00301319 May 14 Kiefer Sutherland successfully made this movie worth watching, and the acting of his co-actors did make it feel believeable irregardless of its lack of scenes showing it, however, the lack of any tangible story, or any intrigue finds this movie lacking, and left the experience of the movie quite stale and unmoving throughout the plot. despite being glued to the screen to see what happens next; What is delivered could have been used for a show instead of a movie, to give it the opportunity to flesh out more story. Finishing the movie left me disappointed, but at the same time wishing for more, as if it would have delivered more story-wise if it had a bit more depth, possibly by being longer, or have the opportunity to be a show with more to give, this would have been a really good view.
